The contracts I signed (Farsi Bibles) were unspecific non-commercial electronic format, but for distribution by Crosswire and my church. So I guess we would need to dig out all relevant agreements and see what is allowed and what not as it may be different for each module - which is what one would expect. Since I became aware of GoBible and David's + Jolon's work I am always approaching everyone with both projects in mind - which would be a lot easier if we simply set this out as one of the things we want to do in Crosswire - produce Bible modules for all platforms - and include mobile phones.
